The Alecom Corporate Brochure (Includes Video)

This week, PaperSpecsGallery.com presents the Alecom Corporate Brochure. Alecom, a publishing management company based in Como, Italy, provides digital, flat offset, roto-offset, cardboard, paper and silk-screen printing. To convey the “Let Us Lighten the Load.” marketing message, Cacao Design in Milan, Italy, created a truly unique corporate brochure that literally floats inside its white presentation box. Cutouts on either side of the box reveal a stripe of signature color (orange) and a feat of levitation that would make David Copperfield proud.

The brochure was printed by Alecom, and the paper used was Fedrigoni X-per.
